Better to get a Radeon HD7750. The 7750 outperforms the GT640 by a large margin for the same price. The GT 640 has DDR3 memory which is significantly slower than the GDDR5 on the HD7750. Many reviews on the GT 640 point out that the slower DDR3 is what hold the card back. Good luck.

Keep in mind the the HD 7750 he is testing is passively cooled. That is why in the review, it is said that the GT 640 has lower temperature.

You can consider NVIDIA GT series graphics card. But based on your specs, just pick a graphics card that's around $50-$100 :)

You can always choose your model. Some brands offer passively and actively cooled. (passively - no fan, actively - with a fan). If you don't have a case with good airflow and case fans then avoid the passive ones, they can get a bit hot. I will confess - I prefer Asus made cards. Even though they are few bucks more expensive I prefer their cooler and quieter operation.

P.S and yes HD 7750 = AMD Radeon HD 7750

I would go for an Asus made HD 7750. I just like the Asus cooler (the Direct CU is quieter and cooler than competition) and I have been using Asus made video cards for the past years and I have yet to have a problem. But ofcourse that comes at the expense of few bucks over manufacturers like Gigabyte for example. Just go to google and search for "ASUS HD7750-1GD5-V2". They have it at Newegg (USA) and on Alternate.nl (dutch) and Alternate.de (german) and many other websites.
